Hampton Court Palace Festival welcomes guests of all ages (with the exception of those booking a VIP package where children aged 12 years and under are not permitted to dine in the state apartments).
The Hampton Court Palace Festival is an open air seated event and we do advise that it is not appropriate for babies and children. If you do, however, choose to bring your children along then they will each require a ticket.
Children under 18 must be accompanied by an adult aged 18 or over who must also hold a valid Ticket.
Events may be age restricted. It is the responsibility of the purchaser of the Tickets to check before purchasing the Tickets that they and the persons for whom they purchase the Tickets can comply with such age restrictions. If you attend an Event where age restrictions apply, and/or if you are claiming a concession, you must be able to provide photographic proof of identity and age or entitlement, as appropriate. We reserve the right to refuse entry, without refund, to any person who is unable to provide such photographic proof.
It is your responsibility to check the suitability of an Event for any children in your party regardless of official age restrictions. This includes considering the type of audience the Event is likely to attract and whether such an audience is a suitable environment for children in your party. Refunds will not be issued if any aspect of an Event, including the behaviour of other audience members, causes offence to you or any children on whose behalf you have purchased Tickets.
We do not recommend subjecting children to loud music over a sustained period of time. Hearing protection is advised. A concert environment is not suitable for very young children.
Except for shows specifically aimed at children, accompanying adults should be confident that children within their party will not cause disruption to other audience members. Any disruption may result in you and your children being removed from the Venue.
